Did you say CHEESE....I LOVE IT!
To answer your question......
It really depends on what I'm going to do with it....
If I'm just going to slice a piece of cheese to eat by itself...or with some fruit or on a piece of apple pie....then the chunk style I like best! Plus this Kraft cheese I usually get sharp or extra sharp...
If I want to make a cheese sauce to go on macaroni then I get the milder cheese in a chunk or large piece. I grate it into small pieces and put it in a white sauce I make with flour, salt, butter and milk. Then when the sauce is cooked the grated cheese goes into it. You mix it together and then bake in the oven until it's hot and bubbles...and golden in color.
Tonight we had Havarti cheese to eat with ham and potato salad...because it's summer and so hot I didn't want to heat up the kitchen Havarti is a cheese from Denmark. It's a very tasty creamy cheese.
You asked about the sliced cheese I always called American cheese....I always loved it on bread that I buttered on the outside and cooked in in a frying pan until the cheese melted and the bread was toasted. You have to watch the heat so you don't burn it...cook it on medium to low.
But as I got older I experiment mixing different things like a mixture of American yellow cheese and the Colby cheese . It has a nice melting quality together.
You can get a metal grater at a hardware store...it has different sizes of holes so you get fine or course pieces of cheese. If you don't have one..take a knife and slice it as thin as you can...then cut it into stripes like sticks. Gather the stick shapes and cut all across at the same time....so you get tiny little pieces.
I think this is the end of today's CHEESE STORY...but there is much more to tell. LOL
good luck....don't let a mouse find your Cheese!
